Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cooking equipment technology, and more particularly to a stir-fry machine. Background Technology

[0002] As living standards improve, people are paying more and more attention to quality of life, leading to the emergence of various automatic / semi-automatic cooking devices, with stir-fry machines being one of them. Currently, stir-fry machines generally consist of a pot body and a base, connected by a rotating joint. The rotation of the pot body stirs the ingredients to achieve the cooking purpose. However, in this design, the pot body cannot be removed from the base, making cleaning the pot body extremely inconvenient.

[0003] In some related technologies, there is no positioning structure between the pot body and the base. While this design makes it convenient to remove the pot body, the lack of positioning constraint causes the pot body to easily move around when the stir-frying device is used to stir the ingredients inside. This leads to the stir-frying device frequently scraping the inner wall of the pot. Over time, this will affect the normal operation of the cooking machine and reduce its lifespan. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0038] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0039] The following content should be incorporated into the writing process as needed to explain the relevant information:

[0040] 1. In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "inner", "outer", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0041] 2. In the description of this utility model, "multiple" means two or more.

[0042] The following is for reference. Figures 1 to 12 Description of a cooking machine 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0043] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cooking machine 100 includes a base 110, a column 30, and a pot body 10.

[0044] The base 110 serves as a support structure for the cooking machine 100, and the base 110 can be constructed as a countertop or other structures.

[0045] In some embodiments, the countertop includes a first plate 111 and a second plate 112 connected together. The first plate 111 is used to mount the control panel 1111. Upon receiving an operation command from the user, the control panel 1111 can control the cooking structure to complete the cooking process according to the operation command. The second plate 112 is used to mount the cooking structure, which may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following: a pot body 10, a stirring device, a pot lid 12, and a cantilever 20, used for cooking operations; further details will not be provided here.

[0046] The pot body 10 has a cooking cavity 11 for holding food. A lid 12 is provided on the pot body 10. The pot body 10 and the lid 12 work together to configure the pot body 10 into an open or closed state. Specifically, when the lid 12 is closed on the pot body 10, blocking the opening of the cooking cavity 11, the pot body 10 is in a closed state; when the lid 12 is open on the pot body 10, exposing the opening of the cooking cavity 11, the pot body 10 is in an open state.

[0047] The column 30 is located on one side of the pot body 10, and the pot lid 12 is rotatably connected to the column 30 via the cantilever 20, so as to drive the pot lid 12 to open or close the pot body 10.

[0048] In some embodiments, the column 30 can be vertically mounted on the base 110, and the side wall of the pot body 10 abuts against the column 30.

[0049] In related technologies, the pot body and base are rotatably connected, and the rotation of the pot body enables the stir-frying of ingredients to achieve the cooking purpose. In this design, the pot body cannot be removed from the base, making the cleaning of the cooking machine extremely inconvenient. Another design lacks a fixed positioning between the pot body and the base. While this design makes it easier to remove the pot body, the lack of positioning constraint causes the pot body to easily shift when stir-frying ingredients using the stirring device. This leads to frequent scraping of the pot's inner wall by the stirring device. Over time, this will affect the normal operation of the cooking machine and reduce its lifespan.

[0050] The cooking machine 100 provided by this utility model introduces a positioning block 40, which is connected to the base 110. The positioning block 40 cooperates with the column 30 to position the pot body 10 on the base 110. At the same time, the positioning block 40 and the base 110 are detachable, making it easy to remove the pot body 10 from the base 110 and improving the convenience of cleaning the cooking machine 100. In addition, in some embodiments, the base 110 is provided with a positioning groove that matches the pot body 10, so that the pot body 10 is embedded in the positioning groove, ensuring that the pot body 10 remains stable during cooking and preventing it from falling off the base 110 due to vibration or stirring.

[0051] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the pot body 10 abuts against the column 30 and the positioning block 40. A positioning structure is provided on the base 110. This positioning structure works in conjunction with the positioning block 40 to adjust the horizontal distance between the positioning block 40 and the column 30. The accommodating space corresponding to this horizontal distance is used to accommodate the pot body 10, thereby enabling pot bodies 10 with different outer diameters to be horizontally abutted between the column 30 and the positioning block 40. In other words, by adjusting the horizontal distance between the positioning block 40 and the column 30 to match the outer diameter of the pot body 10, pot bodies 10 of different diameters can be accommodated.

[0052] In some embodiments, the positioning block 40 is provided with at least two mating parts distributed along its length direction. The positioning block 40 is snapped together with the positioning structure through the mating parts at different positions to adjust the horizontal distance between the column 30 and the positioning block 40.

[0053] In this configuration, when the positioning block 40 is connected to the base 110, the length direction of the positioning block 40 is aligned with the direction away from / near the pot body 10. Therefore, each mating part along the length direction of the positioning block 40 has a different distance from the column 30.

[0054] For example, when the positioning block 40 abuts against the pot body 10, the length direction of the positioning block 40 coincides with the diameter direction of the pot body 10.

[0055] In some examples, the mating part is constructed as a groove, and the positioning structure can be constructed as an elastic snap-fit ​​arm. The hook-shaped protrusion at the end of the elastic snap-fit ​​arm is embedded in the groove to achieve a snap-fit ​​connection between the mating part and the positioning structure. In addition, the hook-shaped protrusion undergoes elastic deformation when subjected to force to engage or disengage from the groove, which facilitates positioning or disengaging the pot body 10, thereby making it easier to remove the pot body 10 from the base 110 and improving the convenience of cleaning the cooking machine 100.

[0056] In other examples, the mating part is constructed as a two-way inclined tooth, and the positioning structure can be constructed as a trapezoidal boss. The inclined surface of the trapezoidal boss and the inclined surface of the tooth interlock to achieve a snap-fit ​​connection between the mating part and the positioning structure. In addition, the two-way inclined tooth and the trapezoidal boss are easy to assemble and disassemble, which facilitates the removal of the pot body 10 from the base 110 and improves the ease of cleaning the cooking machine 100.

[0057] It is understood that the outer wall of the pot body 10 abuts against the column 30 and the positioning block 40. The first force exerted by the column 30 on the pot body 10 is located on the first ray, and the second force exerted by the positioning block 40 on the pot body 10 is located on the second ray. In order to achieve positioning of the pot body 10, the angle between the first ray and the second ray should be within a preset angle range. The preset angle range can be determined according to actual conditions, such as the outer diameter of the pot body 10, the arrangement space of the base 110, etc. This embodiment of the application does not limit the preset angle range.

[0058] For example, the positioning block 40 and the column 30 are located on opposite sides of the pot body 10. In this way, the first ray and the second ray are parallel, so that the first force and the second force form a symmetrical force, reducing the movement of the pot body 10 and enhancing the positioning effect.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the cooking machine 100 incorporates a positioning block 40 and a positioning structure. The positioning block 40 is connected to different positions on the base 110 via the positioning structure, thereby creating different horizontal distances between the column 30 and the positioning block 40. The accommodating space formed by the column 30, the positioning block 40, and the base 110 within these horizontal distances is used to accommodate the pot body 10. Correspondingly, the outer wall of the pot body 10 abuts against the space between the column 30 and the positioning block 40, and the bottom wall of the pot body 10 rests on the base 110, thus achieving positioning of the pot body 10 and avoiding the problem of the pot body 10 easily shifting and being scraped during stirring due to lack of positioning constraints. Furthermore, the positioning block 40 is snap-fitted to the positioning structure via a mating part. This snap-fit ​​connection is convenient and quick to install and remove, facilitating the removal of the pot body 10 from the base 110 and improving the ease of cleaning the cooking machine 100.

[0060] In this embodiment of the application, one of the positioning structure and the mating part is configured as a protrusion and the other is configured as a groove, and the shape and size of the protrusion match the shape and size of the groove.

[0061] Combination Figures 3 to 8 In some embodiments, the positioning structure is a protrusion 51 and the mating part is a groove 41. In this case, the protrusion 51 is formed by the base 110 protruding outward from its side surface facing the column 30; the groove 41 is formed by the positioning block 40 recessing inward from its side surface.

[0062] In some examples, the shape of the protrusion 51 matches the shape and size of the groove 41 in the following ways: if the outline shape of the protrusion 51 is cubic, then the outline shape of the groove 41 is also cubic. The outline dimensions of the protrusion 51 and the groove 41 are consistent; this includes: the cross-sectional dimensions of the protrusion 51 are consistent with the cross-sectional dimensions of the groove 41, so that the protrusion 51 can engage with the groove 41. To facilitate the disengagement of the protrusion 51 from the groove 41, the cross-sectional dimension of the protrusion 51 can be configured to be smaller than the cross-sectional dimension of the groove 41, and a soft material can be bonded to the outer surface of the protrusion 51, thereby facilitating the engagement and disengagement of the protrusion 51 from the groove 41.

[0063] The cross section of groove 41 or protrusion 51 refers to the cross section perpendicular to their respective extension directions m(n).

[0064] In some examples, the shape and size of the protrusion 51 match the shape and size of the groove 41 in the following way: the outline shape of the protrusion 51 is constructed such that its two opposing surfaces are wavy in the direction away from the pot body 10, and the wavy shape extends horizontally; then the corresponding two surfaces of the groove 41 are also wavy, and the wavy shape extends horizontally. The outline size of the protrusion 51 is consistent with the outline size of the groove 41; including: the wavy shape on the groove 41 and the protrusion 51 are consistent, so that the protrusion 51 can be inserted into the groove 41 horizontally.

[0065] In some examples, there are three mating parts, that is, three grooves 41 are formed on the positioning block 40. For ease of explanation, the three grooves 41 along the length direction t are referred to as the first groove 411, the second groove 412 and the second groove 412 in the direction away from the column 30.

[0066] The positions of the first groove 411, the second groove 412, and the third groove 413 on the positioning block 40 can be determined based on the outer diameter of the abutment position of the pot body 10 and the position of the column 30. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. For example, if the diameter of the pot body 10 is 22 cm, 24 cm, or 26 cm, then the first groove 411 can be used to fit a pot body 10 with a diameter of 22 cm, the second groove 412 can be used to fit a pot body 10 with a diameter of 24 cm, and the third groove 413 can be used to fit a pot body 10 with a diameter of 26 cm. Here, 22 cm, 24 cm, and 26 cm can be understood as the outer diameter of the opening of the pot body 10.

[0067] Accordingly, when the first groove 411 is connected to the protrusion 51, it is used to position the pot body 10 with a diameter of 22 cm; when the second groove 412 is connected to the protrusion 51, it is used to position the pot body 10 with a diameter of 24 cm; when the third groove 413 is connected to the protrusion 51, it is used to position the pot body 10 with a diameter of 26 cm.

[0068] In some other embodiments, the positioning structure is a groove and the mating part is a protrusion. In this case, the groove is formed by the base being recessed from one side of its surface facing the column to the other side; the protrusion is formed by the positioning block protruding outward from one side of its surface along its height direction.

[0069] In this embodiment, the technical solutions for the shape and size of the groove and the protrusion can refer to the aforementioned implementation of the groove and the protrusion, and will not be repeated here.

[0070] According to the embodiments of the present invention, the cooking machine uses a positioning structure and a mating part configured as protrusions and grooves respectively. The grooves and protrusions are connected or disconnected by snap-fit, so that the positioning block and the column cooperate to position and release the pot body. Specifically, when cooking with the pot body, positioning the pot body avoids damage to the inner wall of the pot body by the stirring device and improves the structural safety of the pot body; when cleaning the pot body, aligning and releasing the positioning improves the convenience of cleaning the pot body.

[0071] In this embodiment of the application, in order to make insertion and removal easier, the protrusion 51 is constructed such that the outline size of the protrusion 51 gradually decreases along the direction p away from the bottom of the protrusion 51 to form at least one outer inclined surface j. The outer inclined surface j can provide a guiding function to facilitate the insertion and removal of the groove 41 and the protrusion 51.

[0072] In some embodiments, the surfaces of the protrusion 51 on both sides of its own extending direction n are formed with external inclined surfaces j, so as to form a set of symmetrical external inclined surfaces j on the protrusion 51, which is beneficial to uniform force distribution and reduce stress concentration.

[0073] Combination Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first angle α between the outer bevel j and the extending direction n of the protrusion 51 is 5° to 15°, which is beneficial for saving effort during insertion and removal operations and ensuring the snap-fit ​​connection of the groove 41 and the protrusion 51.

[0074] For example, if the first included angle α is less than 5°, that is, the protrusion 51 is approximately a cubic structure, it is difficult to insert or remove by hand. If the first included angle α is greater than 15°, the slope of the protrusion 51 is smaller, and the positioning block 40 or the positioning structure is easy to dislodge when subjected to vibration.

[0075] Combination Figures 9 to 11 In this embodiment of the application, in order to make insertion and removal easier, the groove 41 is constructed such that the outline size of the groove 41 gradually decreases along the direction q away from the opening of the groove 41 to form at least one inner inclined surface k, the at least one inner inclined surface k corresponds to the at least one outer inclined surface j, and the inner inclined surface k can provide a guiding function to facilitate the insertion and removal of the groove 41 and the protrusion 51.

[0076] In some embodiments, the surfaces of the groove 41 on both sides of its own extending direction m are formed with outer inclined surfaces j, so as to form a set of symmetrical inner inclined surfaces k on the groove 41, which is beneficial to uniform force distribution and reduce stress concentration.

[0077] In some embodiments, the second included angle b between the inner inclined surface k and the extending direction m of the groove 41 is 5° to 15°, which is beneficial for saving effort during insertion and removal operations and ensuring the snap-fit ​​connection of the protrusion 51 of the groove 41.

[0078] For example, if the second included angle b is less than 5°, that is, the groove 41 is approximately a cubic structure, it is difficult to insert or remove by hand. If the second included angle b is greater than 15°, the slope of the protrusion 51 is smaller, and the positioning block 40 or the positioning structure is easy to dislodge when subjected to vibration.

[0079] Combination Figure 12 In some embodiments, the positioning structure is a protrusion 51, and the mating part is a groove 41. The base 110 also includes a positioning member 50, one end of which, for connecting with the base 110, protrudes to form a first mounting part 52. A second mounting part 113 is formed on the base 110. The first mounting part 52 is inserted into the second mounting part 113 to connect the positioning member 50 and the base 110. The side of the positioning member 50 facing the column 30 forms the protrusion 51. This positioning structure is designed independently of the base 110, so that if the positioning structure is damaged later, only the positioning structure needs to be repaired or replaced separately, reducing maintenance costs and time costs.

[0080] In some examples, the first mounting portion 52 may be configured as a cubic protrusion 51, and the second mounting portion 113 may be configured as a cubic hole or a cubic groove 41. Accordingly, the cubic protrusion 51 is inserted into the cubic hole or cubic groove 41 to connect the first mounting portion 52 and the second mounting portion 113.

[0081] In other examples, the first mounting portion 52 can be constructed as a cylindrical protrusion 51, which has external threads along its own extending direction; the second mounting portion 113 can be constructed as a cylindrical hole or a cylindrical groove 41, which has internal threads along its own extending direction. Accordingly, the first mounting portion 52 and the second mounting portion 113 are connected by engaging the internal and external threads.

[0082] In some examples, the positioning element 50 forms a protrusion 51 along its own height direction Z. The positioning block 40 is recessed inward on one side surface along its own height direction Z to form a groove 41, so that the positioning element 50 is engaged with the positioning block 40 along the height direction Z, and the protrusion 51 of the positioning element 50 is snapped into the groove 41 of the positioning block 40.

[0083] The height direction Z of the positioning component 50 and the height direction Z of the positioning block 40 can both be understood as the height direction Z of the base 110 when the positioning component 50, the positioning block 40 and the base 110 are connected. The height direction Z of the base 110 can be understood as the vertical direction of the base 110 when it is in the working state.

[0084] In other examples, the positioning element 50 forms a protrusion 51 along its height direction Z. The positioning block 40 is recessed inward on one side surface along its width direction to form a groove 41, so that the positioning block 40 is engaged with the positioning structure in the horizontal direction, and the protrusion 51 of the positioning element 50 is snapped into the groove 41 of the positioning block 40.

[0085] The width direction of the positioning block 40 is parallel to the horizontal direction and perpendicular to the length direction t of the positioning block 40. The horizontal direction can be understood as the horizontal direction of the base 110 when it is in the working state.

[0086] Combination Figures 4 to 6 and Figure 12 To further prevent the positioning structure from dislodging due to vibration, in some embodiments, the protrusion 51 includes two sub-protrusions 511 spaced apart. The two sub-protrusions 511 form a recess 512 on one side facing each other. The positioning member 50 extends from the bottom wall of the recess 512 to the side away from the sub-protrusions 511 to form a connecting hole 5121. The positioning member 50 is connected to the base 110 through the connecting hole 5121.

[0087] In some embodiments, a fastener passes through the connection hole 5121 and extends into the third mounting portion 114 within the base 110 to connect the positioning member 50 and the base 110. Connecting the base 110 and the positioning structure via a fastener is merely an example of a connection method, and this application does not impose specific limitations on it. The third mounting portion 114 may be configured as a hole structure.

[0088] In this embodiment, the outline dimensions of the groove 41 match the outline dimensions of the two sub-protrusions 511.

[0089] In some examples, the contour dimensions of the groove 41 can be matched with the contour dimensions of the two sub-protrusions 511 in the following manner:

[0090] The opening size of the groove 41 matches the overall cross-sectional size of the two sub-protrusions 511, where the overall cross-sectional size of the two sub-protrusions 511 refers to the overall size of the cross-section of the two sub-protrusions 511 along their extension direction n. In other words, when the groove 41 and the two sub-protrusions 511 are engaged, the projections of the two sub-protrusions 511 perpendicular to the extension direction m(n) lie within the projection of the groove 41 perpendicular to the extension direction m(n); and the projections of the two sub-protrusions 511 parallel to the extension direction m(n) lie within the projection of the groove 41 parallel to the extension direction m(n). Since the extension directions of the sub-protrusions 511 and the groove 41 are parallel, the description is based on the extension direction.

[0091] To better position the pot body 10, the positioning block 40 includes a first part 43 and a second part 44. The first height dimension h1 of the first part 43 is greater than the second height dimension h2 of the second part 44. The side of the first part 43 facing away from the second part 44 is used to abut against the outer wall of the pot body 10. In this way, after the positioning block 40 is connected to the base 110, the first part 43 protrudes more from the base 110, which is more conducive to abutting against the pot body 10 and cooperating with the column 30 to achieve the positioning of the pot body 10.

[0092] In this embodiment, the second part 44 is used to form the groove 41. At this time, the height dimension of the second part 44 is small, and it occupies less height space on the base 110, making it less likely to interfere with the setting of other cooking structures.

[0093] Combination Figure 13 To prevent heat transfer from the pot body 10 to the positioning structure after it heats up, thereby affecting the structural stability of the positioning structure, in this embodiment of the application, the cooking machine 100 further includes a heat insulation sheet 45, which is connected to the side of the positioning block 40 that abuts against the pot body 10. In other words, the heat insulation sheet 45 is located between the outer wall of the pot body 10 and the positioning block 40 to prevent heat transfer from the pot body 10 to the positioning block 40.

[0094] In some examples, the heat insulation sheet 45 may be made of steel sheet.

[0095] In some examples, heat dissipation holes (not shown) are distributed on the heat insulation sheet 45 to reduce the heat transfer path of the pot body 10 to the positioning block 40 and avoid local high temperature accumulation on the heat insulation sheet 45.

[0096] Combination Figure 8 In order to connect the heat insulation sheet 45 and the positioning block 40, a fastening hole 451 is formed on the heat insulation sheet 45. A fastener passes through the fastening hole 451 and extends into the positioning block 40 to connect the heat insulation sheet 45 and the positioning block 40.

[0097] In some other examples, a groove 41 is formed on the side of the first part 43 facing away from the second part 44, and the heat insulation sheet 45 engages in the groove 41 of the first part 43 to achieve the installation of the heat insulation sheet 45 on the positioning block 40.
